HAJIMEMSHITE @ the official thread for any & all past, present, & future discussions of our 1st stop on the TAKII World Tour this Summer 2010!!!! Upon its conclusion, this thread will become memorialized in our "Historic Archives" section of the TAKII Forum.

REGISTRATION: No pre-registration is necessary for this stop on the TAKII World Tour. It's completely FREE to enter Gamer Doc & experience gaming retail & tourney action as a standard attendee. However, if you wish to participate in any of the day's tournaments, you will need to purchase a $10.00 Tourney Pass (available at the main kiosk of Gamer Doc). The purchase of a Tourney Pass includes unlimited tournament entries, the ability to chow down (gamer style, compliments from our Team TAKII Coalition Sponsors at Genaurdis), & discounts on your pre-registration for TAKII 10 ~Family Reunion~!

FESTIVITIES: Throughout the day, 8-10 gaming tourneys will be played. In each tourney, entrants will have the opportunity to earn a multitude of points (determined by stipulations such as victory placement, time of day, & TAKII's choice). By the time "Gaming Tourney Take-Over" ends at 8:00pm, everyone's scores will be tallied & the people to earn the top 3 scores will receive 1 of the following prizes: 1st Place = $100.00 gift certificate to PDNMZ Shoppe X-Perience + $30.00 in cash + 3 FREE #1 Contender's Passes for TAKII 10, 2nd Place = $50.00 gift certificate to PDNMZ Shoppe X-Perience + $20.00 in case + 2 FREE #1 Contender's Passes for TAKII 10, & 3rd Place = $25.00 gift certificate to PDNMZ Shoppe X-Perience + $10.00 in cash & 1 FREE #1 Contender's Pass for TAKII 10.

The games to be made playable for this celebration will include: Nintendo Wii = Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Mario Kart Wii + Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree + Bomberman Land + Tatsunoko VS Capcom, Sony Playstation 3 = Super Street Fighter 4 + BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, Microsoft XBox 360 = WWE SmackDown! VS Raw 2010 + Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit, Nintendo GameCube = Zatch Bell: Mamodo Fury + 1 Piece: Grand Battle + Naruto: Clash Of Ninja 2, & some very special old-school gaming surprises! Most tournaments will be played standard bracket style, with winners only advancing. If you have been to a season of TAKII in the past, however, you know there absolutely be some kind of extreme-style stipulations to throw in (^_*). Complete & official tourney rules will only be made available at 10:00am on July 17th, 2010 (when doors open at Gamer Doc, with the tourneys scheduled to begin at 11:00am).
